Salcombe
is a beautiful seaside town in the South Hams district of Devon.
The town is close to the mouth of the Kingsbridge Estuary, built
mostly on the steep west side of the estuary and lies within the
South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The town's
extensive waterfront and the naturally sheltered harbour formed by
the estuary gave rise to its success as a boat- and shipbuilding
and sailing port and, in modern times, tourism especially in the
form of pleasure sailing and yachting.
